Book Description
Steve Jobs has attracted millions of people throughout his storied career. There's a tangible sense among the general public that we never fully knew the real man behind the legend. The recent book on "Steve Jobs" written by Walter Isaacson had aroused much passion and echo in our hearts regarding the legacy of Steve Jobs. In November, this has become the best book in Amazon. Here is the Review by Chris Schluep "It is difficult to read the opening pages of Walter Isaacson's Steve Jobs without feeling melancholic. Jobs retired at the end of August and died about six weeks later. Now, just weeks after his death, you can open the book that bears his name and read about his youth, his promise, and his relentless press to succeed. But the initial sadness in starting the book is soon replaced by something else, which is the intensity of the read--mirroring the intensity of Jobs's focus and vision for his products. Few in history have transformed their time like Steve Jobs, and one could argue that he stands with the Fords, Edisons, and Gutenbergs of the world. This is a timely and complete portrait that pulls no punches and gives insight into a man whose contradictions were in many ways his greatest strength." To add to our treasure to the man behind Steve Jobs, here is a collection of 8 Interview Transcripts on the Life And Death of Steve Jobs: They are either interiews, conversations or Speeches on the Subject of Steve Jobs by Steve Jobs himself or those who have worked closely with him. These will shed light to us of what the man is like behind Steve Jobs. The following transcripts are included: 1. Transcript of Daniel Morrow Interview with Steve Jobs on Steve Job's Oral History 2.

Book Description
_______________ 'Through original interviews, a smart use of source material, and a wonderfully easy-going style, Blumenthal gives a full portrait of Jobs ...This is a smart book about a smart subject by a smart writer' - Ilene Cooper, American Library Journal _______________ Inventor. Visionary. Genius. Dropout. Adopted. Steve Jobs was the founder of Apple, and he was all of these things. Steve Jobs has been described as a showman, artist, tyrant, genius, jerk. Through his life he was loved, hated, admired and dismissed, yet he was a living legend; the genius who founded Apple in his parent's garage when he was just 21 years old, revolutionising the music world. He single-handedly introduced the first computer that could sit on your desk, and founded and nurtured a company called Pixar, bringing to life Oscar-winning animations Toy Story and Finding Nemo. So how did the man -- who was neither engineer nor computer geek -- change the world we live in, making us want every product he touched? On graduation day in 2005, a fifty-year-old Steve Jobs said: "Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That's it. Just three stories. The first story is about connecting the dots. My second story is about love and loss. My third story is about death." This is his story. Critically acclaimed author Karen Blumenthal takes us to the core of this complicated and legendary man, from his adoption and early years through to the pinnacles of his career, his dismissal from his duties at Apple (for being too disruptive and difficult) to the graduation where he gave the commencement speech just 6 years before his death, giving life to what were soon to become some of most famous quotes of his career, ending with the message: "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you." "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life."

Book Description
ABOUT THE BOOK I, Steve: Steve Jobs in His Own Words is a 160-page book divided into two major sections: “Quotations” and “Milestones.” The quotes are organized under 153 headings, most with a single quote, though some have two or more. They are presented in alphabetical order. Many of the quotes have to do with Apple Computer, product design and other business topics such as branding, hiring employees, motivating workers, etc. But almost as many reflect on Steve’s philosophy on life and death, as well as his insights on education, art, material wealth, success, and failure. “Milestones” lists the significant events in Steve’s life, beginning with his birth in San Francisco and subsequent adoption in 1955 and ending with his death in 2011. The book ends with the text Steve Job’s resignation letter as CEO of Apple and with a list of citations. MEET THE AUTHOR Entrepreneurial publisher and social media marketer, David Bunnell is the founder of several magazines in the personal computer industry (PC, PC World, Macworld, NewMedia, Upside), biotechnology (BioWorld) and health (ELDR Magazine) as well as websites and conferences. He is the author of three technology books (EBay Phenomenon, CISCO Connection, Guide to Personal Computing) and two health books (Count Down Your Age, The Immortality Edge) as well as hundreds of magazine and online articles. His interests include technology startups, social media marketing, longevity, healthy living, food and restaurants, oceanography, the salmon industry, basketball, politics of the NCAA, history of World War II, Native Americans, and exercise science. Bunnell graduated from the University of Nebraska in 1969. He was a public school teacher for 4 years before he embarked on his media career. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK Steve Jobs was one of the most visionary business leaders of all time. He revolutionized six industries, including personal computers, animated movies, music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing. But what made him so incredibly inspiring to me and to millions of his admirers was not just his business acumen. It was all the astonishing qualities he had not normally associated with business people. Steve Jobs was an artist; he was passionate, volatile, opinionated, uniquely creative, mysterious, secretive, and even spiritual. The products he created not only changed the world, but they captivated our imaginations. They always had a clean, elegant look that reflected Steve’s great sense of design and they were always surprisingly intuitive, simple to understand and use. During a joint appearance with Steve at the 2007 G5 Conference in San Diego, Bill Gates famously said, “I’d give a lot to have Steve’s taste,” and I imagine most of us would give a lot as well. As did many others, I admired his showmanship when he introduced something new and I wondered what he would come up with next. Now that he is gone, I wonder what great products we will never see. The best way to understand Steve Jobs and discover what really made him tick is to read his own words. As editor George Beahm writes in the introduction to I, Steve: Steve Jobs in His Own Words: Since 1976 Steve Jobs spoke his mind, to the delight of his advocates and the dismay of his detractors, in every possible venue: press releases, statements on Apple’s websites, public appearances to introduce new Apple products, and interviews to the print and electronic media. Reading the profound words of Steve Jobs on the many topics he addressed is a very inspiring experience which I would recommend to anyone. And this book is a great collection.
